Supernatural Hunter (3.5e Class)
Supernatural Hunter
Supernatural Hunters and Huntresses, also known as Hunters for short, are humans who are endowed with supernatural abilities to hunt and kill vampires, werebeasts, and hybrids through witchcraft. They are considered a supernatural species despite being humans and reside in the Spirit World when they die.
Making a Supernatural Hunter
To become a Supernatural Hunter, one had to seek out and undergo the most grueling of spiritual tests to join the first Hunters Order known as The Brotherhood of the Five. The Brotherhood of the Five, or simply The Five for short, are a group of five supernaturally gifted humans who are specially bred to oppose immortal beings, and trained to specifically hunt, cure and kill those "cursed" with bloodlines and powers that abuse the powers of Nature and the Spirit World.
A Supernatural Hunter protected the integrity of the Spirit World, to prevent any supernatural being from using magic that defied the natural laws of the world from entering and abusing the realm of spirits. Necromancy, Demonology, and Voodoo was seen as abhorrent practices designed only for the purpose of abusing what Ao set in place long ago, therefore anyone caught practicing such arts was to be brought before The Brotherhood of the Five, interrogated for information, and then executed without exception to prevent all further misuse. Theoretically, if the Five Gates to the Spirit World were to be destroyed, it would mean the end of Spirit Magic for witches. The Spirit World allows the Spirits to keep existing as ghosts for witches to call upon, so if it were to be destroyed, the Spirits will no longer exist. One of the sacred duties of Supernatural Hunters is to protect the ancient druidic Five Gates built amongst shrines to prevent tears in The Veil which is the only thing separating the world of the living from the Spirit World.
Abilities: Dexterity is the most pivotal force that drives a Supernatural Hunter. Dexterity provides them with a better armor class for a class that does not often wear armor of any bulky kind, it grants them a greater hit chance with their ranged weapons, it is essential for many of the skills that this class commonly utilizes, and it is the key ability in a number special powers. Next in order of importance is Wisdom. Wisdom is the key ability for the magical powers of a Supernatural Hunter, it also is useful for many skills commonly used by the Supernatural Hunter, and is used in a few class abilities. Strength and Constitution can also be useful for the Supernatural Hunter to provide him with extra hit points and allow him to deal out greater damage, two key items needed when fighting close hand.
Races: Most Supernatural Hunters come from races that tend towards lawful and not particularly towards good: such societies often have niches for an Supernatural Hunters to fill. Dwarven and human Supernatural Hunters might be the most common, but all races have their share of these warriors of dark justice.
Alignment: Any nonchaotic. On the good-evil axis, Supernatural Hunters tend to move away from good, since it's very hard to keep to your morals when you deal with the worst of the worst. That said, there are lawful good Supernatural Hunters, which doesn't mean they're washed-out versions of the class at all.
Starting Gold: 5d4x10 gp (125 gp)

Class Features
Sneak Attack: If a Supernatural Hunter can catch an opponent when he is unable to defend himself effectively from her attack, she can strike a vital spot for extra damage.
The Supernatural Hunter’s attack deals extra damage any time her target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the Supernatural Hunter flanks her target. This extra damage is 1d6 at 1st level, and it increases by 1d6 every two Supernatural Hunter levels thereafter. Should the Supernatural Hunter score a critical hit with a sneak attack, this extra damage is not multiplied.
Ranged attacks can count as sneak attacks only if the target is within 30 feet.
With a chain or an unarmed strike, a Supernatural Hunter can make a sneak attack that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage. She cannot use a weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage in a sneak attack, not even with the usual –4 penalty.
A Supernatural Hunter can sneak attack only living creatures with discernible anatomies—undead, constructs, oozes, plants, and incorporeal creatures lack vital areas to attack. Any creature that is immune to critical hits is not vulnerable to sneak attacks. The Supernatural Hunter must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. A Supernatural Hunter cannot sneak attack while striking a creature with concealment or striking the limbs of a creature whose vitals are beyond reach.
Favored Enemy (Ex): At 1st level, a Supernatural Hunter may select a type of creature from among those given on Ranger. The ranger gains a +2 bonus on Bluff, Listen, Sense Motive, Spot, and Survival checks when using these skills against creatures of this type. Likewise, he gets a +2 bonus on weapon damage rolls against such creatures. At 5th level and every five levels thereafter (10th, 15th, and 20th level), the Supernatural Hunter may select an additional favored enemy from those given on the table. In addition, at each such interval, the bonus against any one favored enemy (including the one just selected, if so desired) increases by 2. If the Supernatural Hunter chooses humanoids or outsiders as a favored enemy, he must also choose an associated subtype, as indicated on the table. If a specific creature falls into more than one category of favored enemy, the Supernatural Hunter’s bonuses do not stack; he simply uses whichever bonus is higher.
Hunter's Mark: The Hunter's Mark is a mark which appears as a tattoo on the body of a member of the Brotherhood of the Five. The mark begins at the dorsal face of the right hand and continues up the arm and across the chest, revealing the story of the first Immortals and their curse upon all other races over time, as well as, the ultimate mission of the Brotherhood. It serves many purposes - it's a map, a story, a coded message, an empowerment and a spell all at the same time.
The Hunter's Mark was created centuries after powerful witches created the first known spell of immortality. In revenge for this betrayal on humanity, several deities of good bestowed on chosen few with a cure for immortality, instructing these chosen to create an order that would create and take it to those afflicted with the thirst to abuse nature. The mark was given to The Five as a means to find Immortals and the Cure, which they believed was the ultimate weapon to rid the world of vampires, werebeasts, and hybrids. The Hunter's Mark expands every time he kills a vampire, werebeast, and hybrid. The incomplete mark appears on a potential's hand whenever a member of the Five dies. It grows upon their initial kill, marking their activation from potential to supernatural hunter. A Hunter's Mark comes to full completion when an entire bloodline from an Immortal Sire has been eliminated.
Hunter's Curse: The Hunter's Curse is the ability of Supernatural Hunters that automatically enacts a curse to a Vampire, Werebeast, or Hybrid should they kill a member of the Brotherhood of the Five. This curse causes its victims to be psychologically tortured by the specific hunter even after death by creating powerful hallucinations that torments even the mind of the Original Immortals, slowly bringing them to a madness that coaxes them into taking their own life. The Hunter's Curse is basically a fail-safe, designed to torment the killer of a hunter and drive them insane so that they could commit suicide, and as a way to protect the hunter from being killed by vampires so they can complete their supernatural destiny. Thus, the hunter's job is still completed.
The being responsible for the murder of the hunter would experience horrifically vivid hallucinations, usually in the form of the people that the recipient has killed in the past (the first being the hunter that was killed to trigger the curse) which would then prey upon the killer's guilty conscience, and may even manifest in strange forms, tempting the killer to kill themselves in order to escape this psychological torment, even those who are remorseless and have no problem with murder are not exempted. Every session the DM must roll a DC 10 + character level + Spell Level 9 Will Save vs those who've killed a member of the Brotherhood of the Five, if the target in question fails, they will commit suicide immediately by whatever means is made available to them. It takes an Original Immortal 50 years of successful Will Saves to resist and subdue the effects of the Hunter's Curse to truly be rid of it, though any Immortal whose committed murder of a brotherhood member and has offspring, the curse will pass onto their children instead, activating upon their fifteenth birthday.
Peak Physical Condition: Supernatural Hunters possess bodily functions that are enhanced to the pinnacle of human conditioning. Supernatural Hunters of the Five possess superior strength that makes them stronger than humans, but below that of newborn vampires. That said, they can still hold themselves in a fight, granted a permanent +2 Ability Score point to Dexterity, Strength, and Constitution, and Wisdom. Supernatural Hunters also gained a permanent +5 enhancement bonus to all natural weapon attacks and damage as they are now competent enough to solo fight everything under an Original Immortal. Supernatural Hunters are thus granted Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat.
Peak Human Speed: Supernatural Hunters of the Five possess peak-human speed, gaining a permanent +30 speed increase, though it is unknown if they are superhuman. They are shown to be able to draw their weapons quickly, gaining the Quick Draw feat, and are fast enough to catch cursed beings by surprise before they can react, granting the Improved Sneak Attack Feat which provides a +1d6 per ability level increment instead of taking the feat numerous times to stack the damage.
Peak Human Stamina: Supernatural Hunters of the Five possess peak-human stamina. This is not largely controllable and often occurs as a burst of energy within a Hunter, but they can run for dozens of miles and not lose breath and can physically exert themselves at peak capacity for several hours without resting before showing signs of fatigue. This grants the Toughness Feat with a +10 enhancement bonus.
Peak Human Endurance: Supernatural Hunters of the Five can endure more physical stress than the average person. They can tolerate large amounts of physical pain such as being shot, stabbed repeatedly, burned with high heat, and beatings than that of an ordinary person. They can remain calm through stressful and painful situations, can tolerate extreme hunger, unbearable thirst and the strong urge to sleep. This grants the player the Endurance, Diehard, and Greater Endurance feats.
Peak Human Reflexes: Supernatural Hunters of the Five possess peak-human reflexes. They have demonstrated superior reaction time to those of humans and can dodge offensive attacks, evade strikes from beings with super speed and dodge multiple gunfire with ease, though not fast enough to contend with the Original Immortals. This grants the Lightning Reflexes, Acrobatic, Agile, Alertness and Blind-Fight feats.
Invulnerable Mind: Upon activation, a Supernatural Hunter's mind becomes immune to all mental intrusions. This includes an Immortal's advanced psychic powers, compulsion by Vampires, Hybrids and Werebeasts, and Spirit Possession by Witches. The Supernatural Hunter must make a Will Save DC 10 + Character + amount of enemies present in order to succeed in activating this ability, but an enemy can overcome this if they also beat the DC, otherwise this ability will last for 1d6 rounds and will require an 8 hour rest before next use.
Sensory Detection: Members of the Brotherhood can instinctively sense Immortals, although it seems to require physical contact, seeing as their the main goal of their creation is to hunt and kill cursed beings such as vampires, hybrids, and werebeasts.
Spell Resistance (Su): At 2nd level, the Supernatural Hunter gains Spell-Resistance 10 + Supernatural Hunter level.
Purge Magic (Su): At 2nd Level, When a Supernatural Hunter deals damage to a Spellcaster he may exhaust that Spellcaster's Spells Slots per day equal to the current bonus for this ability. (as seen on Supernatural Hunter table above)
Escape the Cage (Su): At 3rd level, A Supernatural Hunter has become such a skilled anti-magic being that he can use his weapon of choice to deal automatic 1d6 damage to any creature using magic or magic items once per combat. This also causes the Supernatural Hunter to disrupt any spells the creature may attempt to cast for the next rounds equal to the Supernatural Hunter level. And it allows the Supernatural Hunter to Deflect Magic as an immediate Reaction by making an attack roll with a DC equal to 5 + Caster level.
Track: A Supernatural Hunter gains Track as a bonus feat.
Trackless Step (Ex): Starting at 3rd level, a Supernatural Hunter leaves no trail in natural surroundings and cannot be tracked. he/She may choose to leave a trail if so desired.

This effect lasts for the duration of the Encounter.
Force Shapechange (Su): A Supernatural Hunter of 6th level or higher can force a creature into its natural form. The Supernatural Hunter must make a successful melee touch attack against the creature. If the attack is successful, the Supernatural Hunter makes a caster level check as if casting dispel magic against the shapechanging effect. The Supernatural Hunter’s +4 bonus on dispel checks applies to this check. This ability undoes the effect of alter self, polymorph, shapechange, and alternate form abilities, whether exceptional, spell-like, or supernatural in nature. The affected creature cannot change its shape again for 1d6 rounds. The Supernatural Hunter can use this ability at will.
Swift Tracker (Ex): Beginning at 7th level, a Supernatural Hunter can move at his normal speed while following tracks without taking the normal –5 penalty. He takes only a –10 penalty (instead of the normal –20) when moving at up to twice normal speed while tracking.

Ambush (Ex): At 7th level a Supernatural Hunter can surprise his opponents with greater efficiency. Any time his opponent is surprised (i.e denied their dexterity bonus to armor class) a Supernatural Hunter gains an additional 2d6 + Wis modifier damage. This stacks with any other bonuses and is counted with the normal weapon, so it is multiplied by critical hits, etc.
Mind Cage (Ex): At 8th level, the Supernatural Hunter becomes immune to all mind-affecting abilities.
Nimble (Ex): A Supernatural Hunter of 10th level gains the ability to avoid incoming attacks to an extent. Whenever a Supernatural Hunter is allowed a dexterity modifier to AC, he may use twice his dexterity modifier instead of the normal bonus to his armor class.
Learn the Truth (Su): By touching a creature that has lied to him, a Supernatural Hunter of 10th level or higher can force the creature to tell the truth. The creature can make a Will save (DC 10 + the Supernatural Hunter’s level + the Supernatural Hunter’s Cha modifier) to resist this mind-affecting compulsion effect. If the saving throw fails, the creature must speak the true version of the lie it uttered. The Supernatural Hunter can use this ability 3 times/day.
Hide in Plain Sight (Ex): A Supernatural Hunter of 11th level or higher can use the Hide skill even while being observed.
Diving Strike (Ex): At 11th level if a Supernatural Hunter uses tumble to move past, or to approach a threatened square he may also make a full attack without accruing any attacks of opportunity from his opponents.

At 12th level, an Supernatural Hunter chooses bludgeoning, piercing, slashing or nonlethal. Whenever the Supernatural Hunter deals that type of damage to a creature, that creature must succeed on a DC (10 + ½ the Supernatural Hunter's Hit Dice + the Supernatural Hunter's Charisma modifier) Fortitude save or become sickened for 1d4 rounds.

Spirit Magic: Spirit Magic is a powerful form of witchcraft that called upon the aid of the "The Spirits". It was commonly used among witches as it was considered a major source of power. Since witches are the servants of Nature, and their purpose is to maintain the balance, they used the power that the spirits provide by calling out to them. Spirit Magic is usually tapped by accessing a place marked with power.
Spells: A Supernatural Hunter casts divine spells, which are drawn from the Druid spell list. His/Her alignment may restrict her from casting certain spells opposed to her moral or ethical beliefs; see Chaotic, Evil, Good, and Lawful Spells, below. A Supernatural Hunter must choose and prepare her spells in advance (see below).
To prepare or cast a spell, the Supernatural Hunter must have a Wisdom score equal to at least 10 + the spell level. The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against a Supernatural Hunter’s spell is 10 + the spell level + the Supernatural Hunter’s Wisdom modifier.
Like other spellcasters, a Supernatural Hunter can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. Her base daily spell allotment is given on Table: Supernatural Hunter. In addition, she receives bonus spells per day if she has a high Wisdom score. She does not have access to any domain spells or granted powers, as a cleric does.
A Supernatural Hunter prepares and casts spells the way a cleric does, though she cannot lose a prepared spell to cast a cure spell in its place (but see Spontaneous Casting, below). A Supernatural Hunter may prepare and cast any spell on the Supernatural Hunter spell list, provided that she can cast spells of that level, but she must choose which spells to prepare during her daily meditation.
